Description
Lot #1030.1 - Engine 8 was first registered in 1941. It was called a "quad" because it had its own pump, hoses, ladders and booster tank. Today it is powered by a 454ci Chevrolet gasoline engine taken from a 1992 motor home. It has a Turbo 400 automatic transmission built to handle its 10,000-lb weight, power disc brakes and power steering. Some of the details on today's Engine 8 are just for show. The hose-lay on the rear end is fake, and the water cannon is polished to shine, but it no longer works.
